Milhaus Development won design and rezoning approvals Wednesday to begin construction this summer on a five-building, $26 million apartment project in the Chatham Arch area downtown. The development (south of Massachusetts Avenue and north of North Street on the east side of College Avenue) will include 236 units ranging from studios to three bedrooms. Monthly rents will run between $900 and $2,000. The project will include the construction of four new buildings four to five stories tall and the complete renovation of the historic two-story former office building of the Mitchel & Scott Machine Co. The building will include the leasing office and apartments with rooftop patios. About 7,000 square feet on the ground level could be developed as either residential or commercial space, Milhaus said. The first apartments should be available in the spring of 2014. The project’s design is a collaboration of Milhaus, Blackline Studio for Architecture, Anderson + Bohlander Landscape Architecture and CEC Engineering. This is Milhaus’ fifth project in the past three years. The others are Mozzo on Virginia Avenue, Solana Apartments at the Crossing near Keystone at the Crossing, Artistry within the former Bank One Operations Center and Penn Circle Apartments in Carmel. Milhaus also has bid to redevelop the former Market Square Arena site.

Olson became real estate reporter in March 2013 after spending four years as online reporter for IBJ Daily. He joined IBJ in 1999 and spent three years previously at IBJ sister publication Indiana Lawyer. Scott is an Illinois native and graduate of Western Illinois University—home of the mighty Leathernecks. He spent nearly four years at a small Illinois daily newspaper before joining The Republic in Columbus, Ind., in 1994. There, he covered the “courts and cops” beat, and reported news from nearby towns by traipsing through the hinterlands of southeastern Indiana.

In his spare time, Scott enjoys reading history books, riding bicycles, running and—most importantly—watching baseball and cheering on the Chicago White Sox. Scott also serves on the Zionsville West Middle School PTO Board. He lives in Zionsville with his wife and two daughters, along with two cats and a spoiled Chihuahua.
